Seeing the good reviews and IG posts, I visited @theramenshop in Newtown, Wellington to sample their homemade ramen noodles 🍜+ @karrage.burger burgers 🍔 range.
Karrage Chicken 🍗 $6.50
The chicken pieces were tender to bite into and not overly greasy. Sauces provide a nice mix of salty and mild/creamy flavours, which taste better for me if you eat each piece with both sauces together. Good value 💵 for the amount you get.
Unami Burger 🐓🍔 $12
The burger was neatly presented when opening the box. Easy to eat and not overly drizzled with mayo. Chicken breast patty was big and crispy to bite into 😋. Only small quirk could be to add more veggies without making the bun soggy like onion 🧅 or pickle slices.
Tokyo Chicken Ramen 🍜 $17.50
Loved the freshness and heat from the fish. The chicken + mild seaweed flavour from the broth was something that I enjoyed. Ramen noodles were long and soft, which made the experience more enjoyable. Great job 👍🏽 , next time I will go for the spicy chicken ramen.
A neat little place in Newtown and it’s no wonder why it loved by foodies, locals, or Wellingtonians.
Their ramen place had that super nice ramen broth smell and made me hungry once we entered. Got the black garlic ramen and the pork was nice and soft. The black garlic was full of flavour and I liked that they put lotus root and bamboo shoot inside, it’s quite different from other ramen places. My friend ordered the Tokyo chicken and I also had some of it. The broth was different from the black garlic one, it was blander and had a strong taste of sprouts. Personally I prefer the black garlic soup more.
The bao we ordered was chicken and mayo. The bao was a bit soggy which disappointed me a bit but the chicken and mayo were nice.
Not traditional in the slightest but homely flavours and innovative. It’s a cosy place I don’t mind going to any day of the week.
Loved the location, friendly staff and decent food here.
After a tiresome walk to see the fur seals in Owhiro Bay, we had a hearty late lunch at the Ramen Shop.
I loved the minimalist style of the place, and how diners can create their own ramen by choosing soup base and toppings.
In terms of taste, it was probably not the best but definitely comparable to many other ramen places. Vegetables were fresh. 2 wait staff run this small resto, and they were both friendly and accommodating.
This is a review for the ramen shop in town. I ordered the veggie option (shiitake) and I'm happy to say it was full of flavour and warmed my belly up a treat! 😊
The mushrooms and pickled cucumber are delish! Only 20c extra for takeaway. Yum-num-num!
Visited here during my vegetarian month so of course had to get something meatless. Went with the shiitake ramen with tofu buns to start.
The restaurant was quite busy, people left and their seats were filled straight away. It’s a very intimate little spot with dim lighting and a large dining table down one side so you can expect to be seating right beside other customers if you find yourself seated there. Was disappointed they supplied disposable chopsticks instead of ones that could be washed and reused. LUCKILY I packed my own chopsticks! Less waste!
The staff were lovely and the wait wasn’t too long. Buns came out first and were my first time trying tofu in a long time... I enjoyed them!
Next was the ramen, presented beautifully! I unfortunately didn’t enjoy the shiitake, it tasted pickled? and was a bit too much for me. The broth was lovely, I shouldve gone for spicy though. Noodles were my favourite part. Will be back next time I’m in Welly!
First meal of the day here after a hectic day. Just managed to get in an hour before they closed. Good ramen with nice meats and delicious broth. Portions were filling. Service was quick, nice ambience.
great little place for dinner or takeaways. it's a bit small inside, but definitely adds to the cuteness of it. Meals were out fast and were delicious. Always go back :)
If you believe in Hygge (pronounced Hoo-gah) as much the Danes do then definitely come into this special little realm of awesome. The pork buns are to die for. Everything is amazing to be fair. Has changed my life ❤

I love The Ramen Shop. I can honestly say The Ramen Shop's authentic approach to the dishes combined with sourcing fresh, great quality ingredients makes it very appealing for me. The noodles are excellent and taste very fresh. The flavours of the dishes is perfectly balanced, the menu is short and simple, the fit out is simple and the place is very clean. Terrific price point as well. I like how casual it is and I like the communal dining as well as the little tables on the side. I think The Ramen Shop is incredibly great value and affordable in comparison to chain-asian-fusion restaurants that are over priced for the service and food quality. I have worked around japanese and asian-fusion food for over ten years and I can honestly say this is my favourite place to eat in Wellington. I like the laid back service and ordering at the counter, and the staff are always friendly. Great range of plum wine as well! My usual order is The red shiso plum wine, pork buns to share, and the Spicy Chicken Ramen with extra Karaage chicken. I also highly recommend trying the kimchi, the Raw Veg and Ash Salt, and the Dashi Waffle with Chicken Karaage & Okonomiyaki Sauce - So delicious. This is not table service or fine dining. The Ramen Shop is the perfect place to pop in for something simple and delicious. Great stuff.
A delicious ramen shop opened in Johnsonville. The food came out quickly and the service was excellent. Thank you
I’m a busy person and never have much time to dine in at restaurants, however this place is awesome with takeaways. Number 1 on my top spots for takeaways. Have never had a disappointing experience here. One piece of advice though- if you’re getting a takeaway and you live far away, make sure to ask for the noodles and broth separate as the noodles tend to soak up the broth and go a bit soggy (still delish though), but that’s just my personal experience. Overall- strongly strongly recommend this spot.
I try vegan ramen everywhere I go, and The Ramen Shop in Wellington goes above and beyond! From two vegan ramen broth options (mushroom shoyu or spicy miso), to vegan Kimchi, tofu bao, and a Mapo Tofu rice bowl, everything from the clean food to the ambiance and excellent service, keep coming back!
Coming into this restaurant off a friends recommendation, my expectations were incredibly high. The ramen shop did not disappoint. I was greeted by a lovely young boy by the name of Dell and I ordered a Pork Tonkatsu Ramen. The pork was next level and that broth is hands down the best in Wellington. Would 100% recommend this place to anybody from the first timers to the seasoned ramen experts.
Nice little place to go for that ramen craving. First time to try to eat in this place and it didn't disappoint. Spicy tonkatsu wasn't that spicy as I have wished it to be but flavour was good. Will definitely go back and try out their other dishes.
Big compliments to the chefs- perfect amount of savory, umami and richness in the broth, noodles are always cooked perfectly, and the eggs are always so beautifully cooked. Ingredients are fresh and come together to make a gorgeous balanced bowl of ramen.
Got Spicy Chicken Ramen ($17.50). Served the meal within about 5 minutes of ordering. Delicious broth with capsicum, chicken mince, coriander, spring onion and noodles. Would definitely come again if I felt like ramen.
Best ramen in Wellington, super rich broth and delicious house made ramen. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ very similar to the ones i had in Japan!
Karage good flavor but the waffle was not necessary as there was minimal dashi flavour in it. Ramen wise, I wish there were more authentic seasonings on the table like la-Yu or even salt to bring out the flavours a bit more. Chashu was really good and you can taste the effort put into it. The vegetarian ramen was really nice once the shiitake mushroom was warmed up by the broth however the black garlic oil could be revised to be less oily tasting and to have a more robust garlic flavour.
Kalin Soden (Kalin Potato)
+5
I've actually been to this place a few times over the years and I feel like it's a lovely spot. Nice and consistent ramen, good atmosphere, Japanese tunes playing and saved a hungry Kalin after a long hike.
